SODERCAN economic development initiatives in Cantabria

Overview

The Society for the Development of Cantabria (SODERCAN) has introduced several programs to strengthen the regional economy through specialized talent and business continuity.

Initially, the organization announced an 800,000 euro fund dedicated to the Specialized Technical Personnel Program. This initiative provides grants of up to 25,000 euros per contract to support the hiring of specialists in R&D and international trade, aiming to improve the competitiveness and global reach of Cantabrian businesses.

Subsequently, SODERCAN expanded its focus to include gender diversity and generational succession. The organization launched a strategy to promote female talent in STEAM fields through a collaboration with the Asociación Mujer y Talento. Additionally, a 100,000 euro program was established to assist small and medium-sized family businesses with succession planning, offering subsidies to cover up to 50% of costs for business diagnostics and the creation of family protocols.

Recent developments include the implementation of the STEAM Cantabria program, which aims to reduce the gender gap in technical sectors by encouraging STEAM vocations in young girls and fostering female leadership. SODERCAN also issued a new call for aid under its family protocol program for SMEs. This 100,000 euro initiative supports generational succession by providing subsidies that cover 50% of eligible costs, up to a maximum of 15,000 euros, to assist with business diagnostics and strategic planning.

Furthermore, the organization announced the CIBERREG program, a cybersecurity investment initiative with a 100,000 euro budget. Supported by the National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE), the program offers grants of up to 20,000 euros to companies and freelancers in the industrial manufacturing and auxiliary services sectors to strengthen technological competitiveness.
